So what does it take to make it and what are important life lessons along the way? Our Daniela Cambone has an exclusive and candid interview with Frank Giustra, a self-made billionaire and global philanthropist who left his mark as a mining financier and Lionsgate Entertainment founder. In part one of the interview, Giustra shares his successes and failures— and reflects on key moments that led to his wealth.
